Thank you Father for sending your Son to die for our sins and transgressions. Bless Your Name and Bless Your Son’s Name, whose mercy endures FOREVER. HalleluYah
This poem is dedicated to Linda (Grams Glory) who has really taken a liking to the poetry project and sent many suggestions in for poems from Isaiah. Bless the Lord,
and as I find time, I will be writing them.

A New Birth
The Messiah, who would he be, how would we know him?
Who believes our account?
How could they, after viewing the evidence?
To whom is the power of the Lord made known?
He was not the good looking man of the year
Nor was He the kind that attracted us
He was a man of pains, one familiar will disease
He was one from whom we would turn our faces
We did NOT value Him and yet. . .
It was our diseases He bore
It was our pains He could not forget
However we called him punished and torn
We called him afflicted by the Father
He was wounded for our crimes, not another
Our very crimes caused His death
And he did not strike back with hand or breath
He was wounded for our crimes
He was crushed for our sins
Our punishment fell on Him
Not on us as it should
We have turned away, like sheep of the flock
And yet our Father laid our guilt upon Him
He took our sentence upon himself
And Healing will come to us then
Healing that we do not deserve
But That He gave to us for our faith
For what more can we ask?
He wants to save us by His Grace
For in His death, He makes many righteous
In His Sacrifice, many will be made Whole
In His weakness, we can be made strong
What better way for Him to play His Role?

12C Yesha Yahu (Isaiah) 53 Messiah Poem. cjb. wps
Yesha Yahu 53:1-12 complete
(1) Who believes our report? To whom is the arm of Adonai revealed?
(2) For before him he grew up like a young plant, like a root out of dry ground. He was not well-formed or especially handsome; we saw him, but his appearance did not attract us.
(3) People despised and avoided him, a man of pains, well acquainted with illness. Like someone from whom people turn their faces, he was despised; we did not value him.
(4) In fact, it was our diseases he bore, our pains from which he suffered; yet we regarded him as punished, stricken and afflicted by G-d.
(5) But he was wounded because of our crimes, crushed because of our sins; the disciplining that makes us whole fell on him, and by his bruises we are healed.
(6) We all, like sheep, went astray; we turned, each one, to his own way; yet Adonai laid on him the guilt of all of us.
(7) Though mistreated, he was submissive -- he did not open his mouth. Like a lamb led to be slaughtered, like a sheep silent before its shearers, he did not open his mouth. (8)
After forcible arrest and sentencing, he was taken away; and none of his generation protested his being cut off from the land of the living for the crimes of my people, who deserved the punishment themselves. (9) He was given a grave among the wicked; in his death he was with a rich man. Although he had done no violence and had said nothing deceptive,
(10) Yet it pleased Adonai to crush him with illness, to see if he would present himself as a guilt offering. If he does, he will see his offspring; and he will prolong his days; and at his hand Adonai’s desire will be accomplished. (11) After this ordeal, he will see satisfaction. “By his
knowing [pain and sacrifice], my righteous servant makes many righteous; it is for their sins that he suffers. (12) Therefore I will assign him a share with the great, he will divide the spoil with the mighty, for having exposed himself to death and being counted among sinners, while actually bearing the sin of many and interceding for the offenders.”
